Trump Rally - Attempted Assassination


tgo

Recommended Posts

Grazed by a bullet or hit by a glass shard from a teleprompter exploded by a one of the shots meant to assassinate him, what does it matter?

 

HE WAS THE TARGET OF AN ASSASSINATION ATTEMPT.

 

Has anyone seen a photo of a shattered teleprompter? I see no flying debris. A google image search turns up nothing. I don't remember hearing anything resembling a blasted teleprompter on the live audio-- just the sound of shots fired. BTW, aren't teleprompters usually stationed several feet away. A miss that bad was not likely the first unhurried shot.

Probably increases the upcoming fascism in fact. 

Maybe update the thread title.  This was an assassination attempt.  Straight up.  He was hit.  You can debate whether it was a bullet or glass ricochet if you’d like to try and sugar-coat what happene

So now you trust the mainstream media? Just asking.

You are actually one of my favourite posters on the board

 

You go dark for months, then just when I forget about you, you pop back up to show us all just how totally retarded you are

 

There's not a single demographic on earth as dumb as American Republicans in the past decade, not one

Antisemitic Irish who are concerned with American politics are dumber.

A few things here. 

 

1. For those who have clearly never fired a rifle before or, more specifically, an AR-15... Bullets don't travel in a straight line out of the barrel of a gun. They travel in an arc. The height of that arc is around 150M for the AR-15 because the carbine was designed to be effective at a range of 300 meters. That means there is a different point of aim in reference to where the bullet will actually strike. Also, most people think the elevation would make it an easier shot but it was a non-flat platform and for an untrained shooter, the elevation at that range could make it an even more difficult shot. Add the pressure of the situation and that he was clearly rushed as people started reacting to him as he lined up his first shot and it doesn't take a genius to figure out why the guy missed. Anyone who's seen people fire on a standard range - and I've seen thousands, understand that people miss from that range ALL THE TIME. Most firefights happen at a range of less than 100 meters, and it's actually pretty rare someone gets hit, which gives you an idea of just how difficult it is to be accurate under pressure and in non-ideal situations - hunting does not compare. 

 

2. For all the people who are trying to turn this into - he's a Republican, or the Democrat's rhetoric caused this, or Republicans started talking about violence, so this is what they deserve. Shame on you. Be better.

 

3. More details will come out, so jumping to conclusions now isn't helpful. There was nothing wrong with people rallying around Trump after the shooting, and there was nothing wrong with the response by Biden. The only thing wrong is all the political junkies doing their absolute best to blame the other side for one person's bad actions.

Trump golfed yesterday and no reports of his injury. 

 

Sounds like a cut on his ear

I saw a story - I don't know if it's true - that he hit a 20-yard putt and afterward looked up at the group of people who had been following him and said, "Unlike the shooter, I don't miss."

You have to realize Democrats are Narcissistic. Everything is about control to them. They been trying to destroy capitalism. They believe in over taxing the rich because they believe people with great ideas and ingenuity should be penalized for becoming successful. They believe in hiring unqualified individuals just to fill quotas. I believe in equal opportunity for people who meet the high standards. They been trying to slander Trump, charge Trump and now an assassination attempt. They have done the most unconstitutional things to get him removed from ballots. Devilcrats are desperate and will do anything. No talking sense into the Devil. 

 

They been...

 

Hahaha

Anyone who thinks CNN is “leftist” has so little understanding of things and has to be deep in the right wing reactionary cesspool.
 

The good news is MSNBC is not leftist TDS sufferers since they called it “clearly an attack” on Trump from the beginning. 

 

You gave me a good laugh today.  Thanks.
